Thread: Buffs not fading on death?

Hey Z, it's not fading on death...I think the mention of logging is meant to say that even when we log after dying we still can't rebuff. This is a killer, please bring to med developers attention. I'm afraid that this will be like every other medical issue and take months to get looked at.

sorry. yes timer is sticking. after death it continues to say "you already have an enhancement to that attribute." this was not a problem for me before patch.

The buff is dropping when you die but the timer is sticking ....... this is the old bug we had with enhances.


This is a HUGE issue that they finally corrected and have now broken again

Just as I figured. I made sure it was mentioned earlier this morning already onthe Correspondent forum. No guarantees for anything there, though. So I don't know if I will even get a response, but it's there. At least there probably a good chance they will see it there.

Ugg... I hope we get this straighened out toot sweet.


Considering the enhance buff vote is leaning toward keeping things the way it is


And they suddenly change it back so that you keep your buff from doctor rez so only place you can kill yourself to reapply buff is near the clone center, then I feel sorry for those who voted #2 since that is DEFINATELY not what they wanted.


I hope this is just a bug and they don't call it "fix" to bug few weeks back when we started losing buff with doctor rez.


I am pretty sure this is just some strange bug

to Gouta:


that players has probably been kicked of the server(sometimes a cluster crashes)


when they log in again they have lost the buffs but the game will still think they are buffed


tho very similliar this is not exactlythe same problem as the post-patch 1

I gave up CM because of the months of inattention to even the simplest of issues. If this buff fix does'nt happen in a matter of days i'm giving up doctor too. It's just not worth the struggle to excel in a profession that goes so blatantly ignored by the Dev's.

I have no problem when death occurs..it is rare for me, but LD or server isssues are out of my control. I use the buffs and use them until they fade...if a server issue interupts my gameplay so i have to wait a few hours for the timer to reset then why play..my intent for that time is nulled by a very silly programing issue. My suggestion is to reprogram it back to the code prior to the patch...i can deal with the delay between heals, but this issue does effect a lot of doctors that make money this way..if their clients can not rebuff for two hours...then why buff at all. Sure stay alive, but sometimes you eat the rancor and other days it eats you. My question is will they even fix it? Are they willing to say they made an error? OR will they say deal with it until next months big patch? Can we even get a word saying it is being looked at? the in game bug report doesn't work...i think they turned it off on purpose...just my thought. Can anyone actually tell us that they see the issue..it is widespread and has been on the top of the hot topic list since the patch. I have never cried for nerfs or begged for greater power..i just wanted a fun game...this is more like taking away a toy from a child just to be mean...I enjoy self buffing in my gaming scheme...it alows me to go places most don't and feel confident that i can survive...now I have to hope to GOD that the server doesn't stop and do a cruddy roll back. does anyone hear us out there?

I just had this problem. I died with only my health and action buffed. The others wore off before i died. When i cloned i couldnt enhance any of my stats. Saidmy stats were already enhanced and i couldnt reapply my buffs.

Ok, we've gotten a response on this one:


Dev response on 10/9/03: "The buff timer not being removed has been fixed and will be pushed to live."


So we should see this fix coming very soon.
